Model-based HCI system development methodology

Abstract

Nowadays, many Human Computer Interaction(HCI) systems are developed and utilized to the various domains, such as medical field, and entertainment area. To develop an HCI system, a developer should consider developing hardware elements and software elements at the same time. One of the obstacles obstructing the HCI system is that, in the absence of hardware, there is no development environment. This paper proposes a model - based HCI system development environment and development methodology using it. The proposed development environment focuses on the Natural User Interface (NUI) which utilizes HCI’s human movement, and it can replace human and sensor devices by using basic unit model. Also, the developer can test and develop the HCI system by creating a new model by synthesizing the basic unit model to build various patterns of the environment.
